Virginia Tech head football coach Frank Beamer talks health

Virginia Tech head football coach Frank Beamer is one of the winningest coaches in college football. But HealthWise, he's not talking football... he's talking about losing 30 pounds in six months. And now as he heads into a new season, he says this is the diet plan that is working for him.

"I've gotten pretty good at eating half of whatever is on my plate. I don't really watch what eat so much anymore it is just how much I eat." "I feel great my blood pressure is better my cholesterol is better. I'm never going to be fat again."

There is such a thing as the 'just eat half diet." It follows the advice of the CDC in that cutting back on your portions can reduce calories. But the problem comes if you just eat unhealthy things and cut them in half...you may drop some pounds without improving your health.
